Hi everyone! Thanks for stopping by our Lemmy community and taking part. This is just a quick outline of where we are and where we intend to go.
The first thing our dev team is working on is better spoiler tagging and post flairs. These are of the highest priority to us because as a community that focuses on books, movies, TV and gaming we want people to enjoy media without fear of spoilers. We don’t have a time frame for this, but our team is already reviewing Lemmy code and getting ready to write.
Beyond that, we are still in discussions as to what features would be needed. Mod tools are going to be a high priority as well, but it would be good to know what you all, the users, would like to see. Feel free to comment here about features you’re interested in so we can add them to our discussions.
Also, if you ARE a mod here, feel free to add what additional tools you would be interested in using.
Making this site as useable as we can is our current aim. Your help can go a long way towards that. And if you wish to help us on the development side, join our discord and we can get you added to the team.
At the moment we are working with the mainline repo, though the possibility of a hard fork is not off the table depending on features and needs. We are working on some very spoiler-forward features (post blurring for spoilers, flairs, and more) and we do want to feed that back into the main repo if we can. We’d also like to still get updates from them.
The future will depend on how quickly development goes on either side and if we can maintain this or are forced to fork in order to have must-have features for our mods.
